Why Should Only White Males "Know" CW ? ? ? - Women and Minorities Need CW Too ! ! !
Cecil Moore wrote: Al Klein wrote: You can hear the change in noise as a carrier goes on and off. It's extremely difficult to copy high speed CW like that if the signal is strong, but a weak signal or slower CW is just as easy to copy as noise as it is to copy as a pure tone. T1 doesn't mean uncopyable, it just means ragged tone. So now amateurs and SWL's should be Morse code proficient not only using tones but using the swishing sound made when a BFO is not present? -- 73, Cecil http://www.qsl.net/w5dxp CM, OK - Lets make "CW" 5 WPM a High School Graduation Requirement and Start the Nation-Wide Testing of Every Child at Every Grade Level to Ensure that Our Kids Know "CW" ! ! ! We can call it the Uniform Education "Code" {CW} Law -and- Require that No Child Is Left Behind the "CW" Learning Curve ! Why should only White Males 'know' CW ? ? ? Equality Demands that Women and Minorities "Know" CW Too ! ! ! - - - We need an Urgent National Federally Funded Program to Close the "CW" Gap [.] oops - am i ranting ? ? ? . . . oh never mind ! ~ RHF |
If you had to use CW to save someone's life, would that person die?

That trumps CW at any speed. lol thank you for that I guess saving lives is saving lives only when it uses CW. Those firemen are way out of their league when compared to this bunch. |

You never know when it will come in handy. I am not that good at it, maybe a step or less above a Novice, but I like to fool around with it. One ought to think about learning it in do time even though it is not required. My 2 cents worth. |
